It is often used in contexts where an individual requires assistance or guidance, such as a blind person being led by someone who can see. This term emphasizes the act of providing direction and support to someone who is unable to navigate on their own.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Greek and Jewish cultures, leading someone by the hand was a common practice, especially for those who were blind or physically impaired. This act was not only practical but also carried a sense of compassion and care. It was a tangible expression of support and guidance, reflecting the communal and familial responsibilities prevalent in those societies.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/greek/5497.htm">cheiragógos</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>to lead by the hand<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>leading...by the hand (1), led by the hand (1).<p><div align="center"><span class="smalltext"><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/nasec.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe></span></div><div class="vheading2">Thayer's Greek Lexicon</div><span class="maintitle">STRONGS NT 5496: χειραγωγέω</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">χειραγωγέω</span></span>, <span class="greek2">χειραγώγω</span>; present passive participle <span class="greek2">χειραγωγούμενος</span>; (<span class="greek2">χειραγωγός</span>, which see; cf. <span class="greek2"><span class="lexref">χαλιναγωγέω</span></span>); <span class="accented">to lead by the hand</span>: <span class="greek2">τινα</span>, <a href="/interlinear/acts/9-8.htm">Acts 9:8</a>; <a href="/interlinear/acts/22-11.htm">Acts 22:11</a>.
